SALT LAKE CITY — Voters in Ogden and in Salt Lake City choosing mayors, other cities are picking councilmembers, and in Utah’s 2nd Congressional District, a new Representative could be chosen on this delayed Election Day, 2023.

Yellow mail-in ballots have been on kitchen tables and on the front seats of cars for a few weeks now. If you’re reading this on Tuesday, Nov. 21, you’ll need to drop those in ballot boxes and not in the mail. 

Some voters will have a new look to their ballots, as Salt Lake, Utah, and Wasatch Counties have all switched to ranked-choice voting.

The polls close at 8 p.m. KSL NewsRadio will keep you updated with information from county clerks and the Lt. Governor’s office as it is made available to us.
